I personally liked the cartoony stuff more, but this shows potential for dynamic characterization.
Yeah, your anatomy is indeed off a bit. The blue is the stick figure of what you have right now. The right upper arm is far too too short as are both thighs. The second part of all the limbs should be about 3/4 the length of the first part, measuring from the joints. Also, there is no way her spine can bend that way, and you haven't left enough room for her chest.
You are going for "loose and ready for action," so don't lock her knees; they should be bent a bit so she can react quickly. Similarly, make sure the center of her mass is centered on the spread on her feet; she'll look like she is falling over otherwise.
The red sticks are my adjustments. I like the right one more, but the left is also an option ( though it looks like she is skulking a bit)
