The Dancing Lion is likely the first Remembrance boss you will tackle due to how close it is to the start of the DLC. But, even with a high character level, it will be tough to deal damage to and take damage from it until you have upgraded your Scadutree Blessing level.
Collect Scadutree Fragments around the map before tackling this boss, up to at least Scadutree Blessing Level 3, to improve your odds of survival.

The Dancing Lion's main gimmick is when it jumps into the air to change its elemental phase. The most important part of fighting Dancing Lion is keeping track of the Dancing Lion's four phases and each phase's unique ranged attacks, which vary in terms of speed and AoE.
Dancing Lion's melee strings aren't too long, but they can be a bit annoying to dodge due to its tendency to delay attacks, like its dive rolls, to catch you if you roll spam. Stay composed and get used to the rhythm of the Dancing Lion's combos to exploit its highly telegraphed moveset.
The Dancing Lion's attacks are a mix of single target and small AoE moves, but they are heavily focused on locking down single targets rather than widespread arena coverage. Take advantage of Redmane Freyja's NPC summon or your own Spirit Ashes to attract aggro so you can attack with impunity.

This Divine Beast Dancing Lion fights similarly to the one in Belurat Settlement, but does not go into a lightning phase, making this a somewhat easier variant to fight.
Unlike the Belurat Settlement fight, this one takes place in an open area where you are free to retreat behind cover. As such, if you need some breathing space against the Lion, try putting a pillar between both of you.
This will cause the Lion to bump into the pillar during his attacks, giving you the chance to retaliate safely once his attack string is done.
When the Lion drops down near 50% HP, he will scream and summon for some Basilisks to appear at his position. These extra enemies usually are not anything special, and can be taken out quickly.
While these opponents are easy to kill, they should not be ignored as they can either be a nuisance during the fight, or can inflict Death Blight, which will automatically kill you, so try to focus them down quickly to prevent this.
With the addition of more enemies to look out for during the fight at the half-time mark, using your Spirit Ash to draw the Lion's aggro while you take out the small enemies is highly beneficial.
This can give you a much-needed breather in an otherwise hectic fight, or give you the space needed to focus down the summoned foes.
