Yes, it is your duty as a human that when you are curious about things like this that you make the spiritual journey to discover the truth about everything. Explore every religion there is on Earth, find what is comfortable to you. Do not worry about others. What is important is what YOU feel in your heart!

Jewish traditions says one must study Torah for many years before he is ready to study Kabbalah. They even say that one needs to have maturity and 40 is a good age to start this study.
Any of this crazy Kabbalahist of modern day fame is nothing but cult, and not at all Kabbalah.
Oh! And Kabbalah is not considered magic. It is mysticism and tuning into spiritual inter-most feelings with the world around you, and reaching to heaven.

I learn the Bible the entire means via whilst I was once a child and adored being a Christian. I've studied ingredients of the Bible in my maturity now that I'm completed with Christianity, usually to take a look at and realise what I had initially learn but additionally to make a legitimate strive at mentioning the damage in institution-suppose to the believers who desire to talk about their faith with me. I in my view suppose Christianity is going a protracted option to disprove itself if you are pondering rationally. I possess 2 Bibles - a KJV and an NIV.

There are certainly many aspects of theoretical Kabbalah you can pick up on your own; for further knowledge, you would indeed have to contact a rabbi, and I honestly don't know how one would do that. I'd recommend gaining what knoweldge you can--they want people who are serious and dedicated, and will probably send you away many times before accepting you to see how dedicated you are.

As a Jew I say to stay away from the Kabbalah and all Mistisism it only takes your eyes away from G-D

Just because you discuss or study other religions shouldn't mean that you're disrespecting your God.
You should learn about other faiths, broaden the mind.

Qabala studies are very useful. Highly recommended.
Warning: I am Neo-Pagan so some might say I am leading you astray.
