Practicing the Riposte mechanic versus Blood-stained Beast is probably the worst idea I've ever heard in the entire history of gaming.
For the first couple of kills (yes, first time and then NG) just treat it as a Matador affair whilst exploiting those pillars, all the time popping pills. Never try to get in front of him whilst he's enraged or you'll get bear-hugged.
You might want to learn it for the Chalice Dungeon encounter, as there were no pillars there IIRC. Even so, I just rolled and lolled through that as well.
