Have your mentioned this to

Have your mentioned this to his physician? Sounds like something may be going on with his hips/pelvis.

I could be totally wrong on this as I do not work with kids, but from my own experience there could be something going on.

Another idea could be a sensory issue. Does he do this with his shoes on and off? If he does it only when his shoes are off, he may be demonstrating a hypersensitivity on the bottom of his feet.

Hope this helps.
