Morphology
The meaning 'an occasion in which someone is taught how to dance' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'dance' (the activity of dancing) with 'lesson' (an instructional session). This is a common, compositional noun phrase pattern cross-linguistically, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
Dance lesson comes from the simple idea of a dance and a lesson, where a teacher shows steps and people practice them. So, it means 'a time when someone is taught to dance'.
