A technique is not a single isolated movement but rather a range of movements. We've already covered some teep variations, but rather than thinking of variations as modifications of a parent technique, think of them as various degrees of the same technique. You have the freedom to execute a teep as you see fit. There is no one teep. Within the teep, there are multitudes. Since you can never deliver the same teep twice, the degrees within the teep are infinite. The universal binding agent for the teep is that you always land with the ball of your foot. Seeing movements as ranges makes it that much easier to organize, recall, adapt, and own them.
Here are some (but not all) examples of teeps:
