Jujutsu as the martial art does not include the modern judo, aikido, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and the like, so it is sometimes called 'koryu jujutsu' (the old-style jujutsu, mentioned below) to make a clear distinction between itself and these martial arts.
武術としての柔術には、現代柔道、合気道、ブラジリアン柔術等は含まれないが、より明確に分けるために「古流柔術」と呼ぶ事もある（下に記す）。
