Thinning and Transplanting Bird of Paradise

Question

How do I thin and transplant Bird of Paradise? Should I cut it down to the base and split it, or should I leave the foliage on it and split it through all the leaves? I need to transplant them to another area but must place them temporarily into pots so that the work on the planter walls can be completed.
