(PEOPLE.com) -- "I really want to start dancing again," Chaz Bono tells PEOPLE. No, he's not expecting to be invited back to "Dancing with the Stars," where he lasted an impressive six weeks this past fall. He's looking to woo the ladies on the dance floor, explains the newly single Bono, who split with his fiancÃ©e in December. "What a great skill: to be able to take a woman dancing ... and actually know what you're doing!" Bono's been staying active, maintaining his DWTS weight loss by taking up boxing and skiing over the Christmas holiday with his family. He'd understandably taken some time off from the slopes, explaining, "First I was a drug addict and then my dad died skiing, so that kind of turned me off a bit."
