Reviews about Galina’s works:

“She is in my judgement, an excellent resource in the modern dance world. I much admire her work as teacher and choreographer, basing this judgement on what I saw during the 1996 American Dance Festival’s season. Moreover she is a very pleasant, attractive and congenial person, all over adding to her effectiveness in her various pursuits.”

Martha Mayers

Galina is one of the small numbers of Bulgarian dancers and choreographers who is truly proficient in contemporary dance techniques. Because of her special interest and dedication, she has developed these skills in spite of the relative lack of opportunity in Bulgaria to study modern forms. She is an extremely gifted dancer with extraordinary natural ability aided by great intelligence."

"A Never Ending Story" is a special piece of work, made in an original way with good understanding for theatrical aspects. The exiting movement concept is deal with inventively, in an inspired way Borissova puts bodies in motion throughout the piece. She can make her statement visible. She created her own universe and a poignant sense of humour as well."

“Galina’s choreography reveals an original creative thinker. Her work is highly theatrical

and full of surpasses.  It is also witty, an unusual quality in contemporary dance these days. She is capable of independent work, she is obviously a successful director of dancers, actors, and civilians alike. I have no doubt that Galina is strongly motivated to find new direction in the area of dance-theatre she has chosen for herself.”
