The Jûjutsu is one of the most anciant Japan combat martial art. It’s Ju Jutsu an independent system with own training thematic.

What is the different between: Jûjutsu, Ju Jutsu, Ju Jitsu, Jiu Jitsu? Actually nothing. In the speaks of Japanese the sounds is Jujutsu but the English people started to use the name Ju Jitsu. Than to make it more difficult, German people and other nations are using it as Jiu Jitsu. All of them is the same. The matter is only that different nations use different pronounciations.
