A muscle of the thigh. The basic functional movement of tensor fascia latae is walking.
in the leg
When the tensor fasciae latae contracts, it helps to stabilize the hip joint and assists in flexing, medially rotating, and abducting the thigh.

The "glutes" including the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus, and the tensor fasciae latae
I believe it is the semitendinosus, semimembranosus and popliteus muscles.

The tensor fasciae latae muscle attaches to the iliotibial band. This muscle is located on the lateral side of the hip and helps stabilize the pelvis during activities like walking and running.

The synergist of tensor fascia latae is the gluteus maximus.
