It should be straightforward - they don't have complicated root systems.

Dig the whole clump up and gently follow the canes down to tease the roots apart.  Replant with added manure if you have any.

If you are replanting them in the same place as they've come out from, I'd suggest briefly covering the roots with something so they don't dry out before you've re-prepared the bed for replanting.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

You can't train them along the fence though, if that's  what you meant.

You can plant them along a fence, as per Yorkie, not much involved in teasing them apart.
