I used keybr a bit when learning Workman. It was handy to display a virtual keyboard and see the layout for day 1 while I learned the keys. Overall I felt the site was annoying, though. Lots of gibberish that never felt quick or comfortable to type, and the stats it gives you always seemed a bit questionable. My favorite methods for improving are a mix of full-immersion (continue to use irc, email, your text editor, etc.) and monkeytype.
I was also on a split ergo keyboard (Pinky4) while learning Workman and found that enabling all the symbols and numbers on monkeytype helped me solidify muscle memory for less-used keys. I feel more comfortable typing numbers on this keyboard than I think I ever did on a row-staggered keyboard. I put the settings this way very early in the process, so now in the 100wpm+ area I don't get totally thrown off typing parens, quotes, or numbers. They're practically equal to letters for me.
