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.

Theoretically, I learned typing as part of a series of video games for the Apple IIE my mother had when I was 10. However, all that really stuck was the home keys, and I developed what-finger-goes-where-without-looking much later, on my own. (Which means I probably have hand-posture as bad as yours.)
