Your chi will probably out grow this. He just needs time to get used to you, and that could take a few months. Don't scold him for this though, as it will make him more fearful. Fifi did this also when we first got her. She stopped after she learned that we would never hurt her. As he gets more used to you, his surroundings, and becomes more confident he'll stop. Put yourself in his shoes, wouldn't you be scared and submissive if you were the new kid on the block and all you noticed was a huge handing coming down at you? I know I would be..lol! Maybe avoid coming straight down on him. Try sitting down with your hands out to him, but resting on the floor, and let him come to you. Good luck! ~Lacey
