how to list directories only

I would like to know how to list directories only without a / at the end. I would like to only see them in my current dir.

for example

ls - d */ gives

dir1/ dir2/ dir3/ dir4/

but is there a way to get only

dir1 dir2 dir3

i need it to use them as inputs in a foreach loop where i want to perform an action in my sub directories, but the / at the end is giving me problems


thanks
