Some thoughts off the top of my head:
Rock climbing - is there a rock climbing gym or organization?
Kayaking - is there a kayaking club?
Tennis or other sport - club or league?
Building model airplanes or something similar - club or class?
Learning languages - class or group to practice speaking?
Hiking - could you take a guided or organized hike? hiking club?
Cooking - take a class?

... and so on
Personal trainer half a year ago, ever since then I went to the gym regularly. Also used to swim, once had a nice apartment near a large outdoor heated pool. Cardio boxing from time to time, and Ashtanga yoga rarely.

I work out to keep my body fit, which helps keep my mind active. I don't really meet people in class, only time we do is within the context of those classes.

As for other classes, cooking, learning a new language, to me, they are distractions. It's finding time to fill in the void without really taking care of main problem - in my case, having a rich social life and working less and enjoying more out of it.
