I am glad that you are using the CUBII if it is easier than walking. I wonder if things like chair yoga or some of the other seated exercises could benefit you.
My suggestions would be to check into some of the free online seated exercises on YouTube. That way, you can see if they are compatible or not, and there are so many of them. Are you old enough for Silver Sneakers? I think they start at age 55. In the States, our insurance will pay for them at a gym or give you access to free TV follow-along exercises of all kinds. Around here, you can not only join a Silver Sneakers class, but most places allow you to take advantage of other facilities in the gym at little to no charge.
Whatever you do should not be painful to you, or you won't do it. I know that you love exercise, so hopefully you can find something that suits you that you will enjoy. It would be great if you could find something that the gym doesn't already offer and offer it for obese, elderly, and/or disabled people. Somehow, the gym doesn't seem to see those people who can't do all the bouncing and other things, and I wish it did. You are a natural-born leader, so if anyone could put together a program to help those unseen people, it would be you.
