Study with a jazz sax teacher. The concept of "jazz" is what you'll be learning. the principles and exercises and lessons will work for you, despite it being a different instrument.

PS - if you find or feel you are lacking the fundamentals of clarinet (as in clarinet embouchure, fingerings, etc) take some lessons with your local classical clarinetist.

In short - study "clarinet" with a clarinetist, study "jazz" with local jazz artist (sax would be preferable, but not necessary. Just that brass tench pairs might be a little different and you're best to stick to a fellow reed player)
