I’ve also seen balance boards and gymnastic rings at home for kids so she can rock and get excess movement out?
A few companies also do Indoor climbing furniture.

Thanks, Lemon. Dr. T actually suggested a rock climbing place recently--apparently, his son was also into that sort of thing at one point. There are a couple indoor ones near us and an outdoor one, but I know my H is concerned about Covid right now for indoor places. But maybe we try having her go anyway? Coincidentally, she's going on a field trip with school to the outside on in a couple weeks, so we'll see if she likes that.
Not sure if we'd have room for indoor climbing furniture, as our basement is pretty small (townhouse), but it's worth checking into. Especially if we got rid of one of the unsafe things she's climbing on!
We actually have a trampoline and gymnastic rings in our basement that she uses, too, so those were good thoughts! She just has a lot of energy to get out... She used to do gymnastics, but it doesn't seem like any of the places have weekend options for classes for her age group and skill level (not high!). But we may need to check again, in case that changed. Or consider something after school.
