Repotting Catleya

I have few Catleya in my collection which are now full with its bloom. The plants have become very big and that is why I want to know that can I break the plant and re pot them after the bloom. Any suggestion about the method of re potting will be highly appreciated.

My suggestion is to get a bigger pot and leave them undivided. Bigger plants means more flowers.

kmarch is better if you want to see bloom in the next few month.
If you want to have a few of the smaller one ,which will take a long time to grow to
blooming size.
