Thank you for asking querry.
The description you are giving looks like convulsions to me.
Though get checked him with your physician once and he may advice EEG.
Keep watch on the movements if he do it again get video of it so it can be decided whether its normal or not.
Hope you find this helpful.
Rate the above answer if you like it.
