Radio-controlled model car, speedboat or sailing racing.

Archery

Are there other active based non-traditional activities going on within TV?

Exclude...golf, bowling, social clubs, cards, board games, shuffleboard etc.
Improv & scripted acting classes.

Street Hockey every Tuesday at the Seabreeze tennis courts, until it gets too hot for the goalies.

Was ballet lessons one of the activities that the movie about TV made fun of? Or was it belly dancing?

I must say all these high-risk activities for seniors is dizzying! And perhaps problematic if injuries occur because good healthcare is scarce here, as has been mentioned numerous times on these forums. In fact, I would cite that as the biggest drawback/failing of living here - inadequate or subpar medical services.
