(WHDH) From hang gliding, to a flying trapeze, you could say Libby Segal has done it all, or at least tried to.

"Piloting a plane has been my absolute favorite hobby, I did it twice, that's how much I enjoyed it," said Segal.

Her goal: to try something new once a week for a year.

"I knew I had to start the project with something no one really expected me to ever try," said Segal.

That something was pole dancing.

"It was absolutely outside my comfort zone, all about self image," said Segal.
