What style are you seeking, Vahn?
Your profile lists TKD and Karate as your primary training so, given your 'rank' and relative youth, I wouldn't really suggest delving into the sword arts just yet. Wait until you've graded to shodan so as not to run the risk of learning two very different things and have that diversity negatively affect the proficiency in either.
Of course, if you are switching 'direction' so to speak and are going to concentrate fully on the JSA then the above cautionary does not apply.
