Or as we humans call them Hooves.

There's either feather footed stronger centaurs, more commonly linked to draft or war horses. These Centaurs are more equipped for carrying loads in wagons behind them, or fending off the enemy.
The large muscled giants are formidable and always seem intimidating, usually their hearts are in the right places. The largest are usually linked to war either blacksmiths or warriors or medics. Their upper bodies are far more varied than their lower definitive halves. Natural muscle resides, and more that has been trained after that.

Or there are more fleet footed centaurs. These are the ones that are with less obligation to the wellfare of the clans and a little more solitary. Many moons ago they lived in more happy heards, but after their numbers started dropping more and more began living in the forests and becoming the safeguards, or caretakers, of the woods. They are usually faster and more lithe than the feather footed giants.

Most of the fleet-footers are able to have strong connections with the dryads and other creatures that live on a more spiritual level.
