What is a "teep kick"?
A teep kick is a type of kick commonly used in Muay Thai, which involves pushing or thrusting the foot forward, much like a jab with the legs. The teep is typically aimed at the opponent's body, often targeting the chest, stomach, or head. It is used to maintain distance, control the pace of the fight, and set up other strikes. This kick is effective for pushing the opponent back or off balance and is an important defensive and offensive tool in Muay Thai. The teep is known for its speed and precision, as well as its ability to disrupt an opponent’s rhythm.
