Try Burnley College in Burnley near the Richmond area. They have the best Horticulture program around. I even believe they have bonsai relevant classes as well.

Then go, and offer your services. Don't expect to get paid until they think you're useful.

Might as well pick a first-rate one for that purpose.

Good Luck!
