I don't think that the "focused" in answer choice a is a problem - it's just a restrictive participle modifier. The problem with answer choice a is a subject-verb agreement. While "practicing yoga poses" is a singular noun phrase, "release" and "improve" are verbs in plural form that don't match the noun they refer to.
