It was upsetting for her and really aggravated me, but life goes on....

I am not sure how I would handle as it is not worth a physical fight IMO. Knowing my personality, I suspect I would LOL, then in a very serious face, say .....sorry, I thought you were joking....

Maybe followed by, ".....tell you what, you go tell the instructer or folks at the front desk I am in your spot. If they tell me to move, I will.

As everyone knows a small percentge of <insert word here> exist everywhere. It is a shame we cannot tag them so everyone would see them coming.

Now that is an excellent and non combative comeback. I will remember it...

But probably will be to big of a sissy to actually SAY it.
