Are you looking for going into traditional karate or freestyle?

If you're looking for traditional it's good to go with one of the 4 main styles, Goju Ryu, Shotokan, Wado Ryu and Shito Ryu. There are other good ones of different and mixed styles, it's always good to look around first. The cheapest doesn't always mean the best and vica versa.
