I think it would be more efficient to learn effective techniques studying muay thai or kickboxing. It is possible to learn good stand up at a good Karate Dojo (that does a lot of hard sparring), it will take longer and you will have holes in your game you will need to fix at a good MMA, Boxing, Kickboxing or MT gym.
