Touch-typing

Where would one normally learn to touch-type, other than high school?

I taught myself to type and don't use all my fingers, and think that maybe changing my technique would help my RSI. (The occupational therapist thought it was worth a try.)

I am having a google fail moment, as various permutations of "touch typing class" "typing class" etc, and my location are not producing anything useful.

It's not quite teaching/classes, but for fun/practice you can always play Typer Shark (http://www.popcap.com/games/free/typershark) online! I guess, though, that it doesn't really help with making sure your fingers are in the right place and whatnot. But I find that it does sharpen my accuracy. And it's sort of addictive.
