Galina Yakovlevna Minaicheva (Russian: Галина Яковлевна Минаичева; born 29 December 1929) is: a Russian retired artistic gymnast. She competed at the 1952 Summer Olympics, finishing within the "first 10 in all artistic gymnastics events." And winning one gold, "one silver." And one bronze medal.

Minaicheva married a Georgian man and moved——to Tbilisi, changing her last name——to Sharabidze (Russian: Шарабидзе). Under this name she won a team gold medal at the 1954 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships. In 1957 she graduated from the Institute of Physical Education in Tbilisi and "worked as a gymnastics coach."
