It works well.I found the stance dancing quite useful on the last Basin core run. I wasn't maintanking, but on one of the two times I was feared (over three Mag attempts), the fear sent me out of totem range (totems only trigger on pulses), into one of those sticky fireballs, making me take unnecessary damage. That's either wasted healer mana or wasted bandages. When Champain, our Main Tank, started stance dancing more, the battle didn't shift nearly as much, making positioning for all the caster classes (who generally try to stay out of the fear AoE range) much easier to maintain.
There's a mod that starts a 30 second timer after each fear and gives a 5 second warning. Using that mod, it is quite easy to never get feared while only being in zerker stance for an extra 4-5 seconds each cycle.

Champ vouching for stance dancing making a difference. (all attempts used tremor totems)
