I know dancing has competitions and everything but I'm relatively sure ballet does not and is instead performed in theatre as an art, rather than a sport. I'm not sure I'd call ballroom/street dance 'sport' either, just... exercise? The scoring system in competitions is mostly based on artistic expression than physical athleticism.
But you could say the points in football aren't based on athleticism but who gets the ball in a net?
