The 71-year-old Liu has many "firsts in Taiwan dance" to her credit. She was the first to earn a doctorate in dance; the first to record oboriginal dance; and the first to go abroad to copy original choreographic notation of ancient Chinese dance, which she then reconstructed and staged. Now in her sixth year since "retiring," she is still teaching and choreographing non-stop.
今年七十一歲的劉鳳學擁有好幾個「台灣舞蹈第一」的頭銜：她是第一位舞蹈博士，第一位採集原住民樂舞，第一位將中國古代舞譜手抄回國並且整理發表，也是在退休六年後的今天，仍然不斷教舞、編舞的舞蹈家。
